Rusty Russell 24da1cbff9 modules: remove modlist_lock ...

Now we always use stop_machine for module insertion or deletion, we no
longer need the modlist_lock: merely disabling preemption is sufficient to
block against list manipulation.  This avoids deadlock on OOPSen where we
can potentially grab the lock twice.
